I would never recommend Sony for car audio, and to be fair, you begin saying Sony are good but you demonstrate how bad their gear is... 
Most people just find Sony car gear to be substandard, though... quality is fine if you want eq'd pop clarity for factory or cheap 2-way speakers. For anything else, leave alone!
I'm running a Panasonic whilst I'm low on funds but ideally the lowest your budget should extend to are Pioneer's, and they make some excellent MP3/CD units.
If you can afford it, go for an Alpine. They're second to none, although they produce a very clean sound and as such some find it to be too harsh. I believe they're more for providing a clean source to seperate amplifiers which would then warm the sound.
All this, just opinion by the way!
